Unicorn Book Feature - Penny White and the Cult of Unicorns by Chrys Cymri


Sybrina's Unicorn Book Pick

Unicorns!  How we love them. . .Luckily for all of us unicorn lovers there are hundreds of unicorn books available for all age groups.  I have gathered information about as many as I can find and have placed them here for you in one convenient spot on my blog.  Today's Unicorn Book Feature is


Penny White and the
Cult of Unicorns

 By Chrys Cymri

Raven’s ears flicked. ‘Dragons aren’t known for their patience.’
‘More is the pity,’ said the unicorn. ‘Father Penny and I were about to amicably settle our differences. A dragon invading our home vastly complicates matters.’


Five months ago my life was changed forever when I learned about Lloegyr, the sister nation to England on the magical parallel world of Daear. Thrilling rides on Raven, a darkly beautiful search dragon, break up the monotony of my life as the priest of a small village church. Nor are things dull at home, not with a sarcastic gryphon, a snail shark, and my younger brother all sharing my living space. And then there’s Peter, the almost too perfect police inspector who enjoys Doctor Who and single malt whisky as much as I do.

But Lloegyr is facing its own struggles. As various races such as dragons, gryphons, elves, vampires, and harpies flood to the rapidly growing cities, they all trust the unicorns to act as peace makers. But dead humans are turning up in the city of Northampton, with wounds which only a long spiral horn could have made…

'A compelling and witty sequel to Temptation of Dragons! Penny is a fantastic heroine because she doesn't think of herself as such. ...Chrys Cymri perfectly captures this blend of humor, honesty, reality, and fantasy.' ★★★★★  Readers' Favorite
'Author Chrys Cymri delivers a first-rate humorous read.' ★★★★1/2 InD'tale Magazine

Journey To Osm - The Blue Unicorn's Tale Reader Review by Marta


  Journey To Osm - The Blue Unicorn's Tale

 Reader Review by Marta


Journey to Osm is a fantasy where the protagonist is a unicorn – a unicorn! How exciting! And how absolutely unique! The story follows Blue, the so-called “promised prophecy” that will save the unicorn tribe. Unfortunately, things do not go as planned for Blue, and he faces quite a lot of struggles as he grows up. Sybrina Durant does an impressive job at world-building and creates a story that is unique yet reflective of real-life coming-of-age struggles. The only reason this received a 3/5 is because it had a rather slow development. This would be a great story for children.

Journey To Osm - The Blue Unicorn's Tale Reader Review by Beth C


  Journey To Osm - The Blue Unicorn's Tale

 Reader Review by Beth C



Let me begin by thanking Netgalley and Sybrina Durant for sending me the Arc of this captivating story. I literally read this book in a night! The story begins in tye land of MarBryn with the birth of Blue our main character, a frail and unique unicorn. His birth was foretold by the Orcle, that Blue would rid the Unicorns of the evil Magh that hunts them. But unlike the rest of the Unicorns with horns made of different types of metal which gave them all individual powers, Blue’s was merely made of hide,not metal so possessed no magical powers. Fast forward twenty years Blue is a loner, belittled by most of the tribe. His horn didn’t possess even a drop of magic no matter how hard he tried nothing would happen, this is when the plot starts to thicken. Sybrina’s writting skills is nothing short of whimsical. I really enjoyed Sybrina’s word building throughout the story, it painted a picture in your mind how beautiful Marbryn used to be before the wars. Sybrina’s character’s were well rounded, all of them leaving a lasting impression. The story itself was a bit of a slow burn to begin with but I think it had to be to build up the plot, emotions were portrayed perfectly throughout. Personally reading this book I think it has similarities to The Last Unicorn by Peter S Beagal but it also has a unique flare. I think anyone that’s a fan of fantasy and adventure would enjoy this. I give this book a 4. 5 star rating. I’d happily read other books by Sybrina Durant.

Journey To Osm - The Blue Unicorn's Tale Reader Review by Victoria M.


  Journey To Osm - The Blue Unicorn's Tale

 Reader Review by Victoria Mariposa


Journey to Osm: The Blue Unicorn's Tale by Sybrina Durant is a magical fantasy story that is well written. The plot of the story begins when Miral gives birth to a unicorn with neither metal nor magic. Not only that, the baby unicorn is small and weak. This is after Alumna, the oracle, had received a vision that the baby unicorn would grow to be strong. What then, given his current stature, was he going to do if confronted with the worst Magh army?

I loved how the author built her characters and scenes gradually, pulling me in with each page. Also, the story is quite thrilling. It kept me at the edge of my seat the whole time. I can definitely see this being turned into a movie. That you Sybrina Durant for such a great read!

Journey To Osm - The Blue Unicorn's Tale Reader Review by Seraphia


  Journey To Osm - The Blue Unicorn's Tale

 Reader Review by Seraphia


Journey to Osm is a beautifully written tale of a herd of unicorns waiting on their prophesied savior to be born. He will be the one with the horn and the magic to save them all from the evil who wishes to destroy them all and enslave the world. The author builds such a beautiful world in this story. We meet unicorns, pendragons, two-leggeds (humans) and other strange creatures. This story tells the reader about young Blue who is made to not feel as if he belongs simply because his horn is not metal when he is born. "No metal. No magic." You will feel the sadness that he feels as he seeks to hide from the herd and learn the extent of loss that they have all suffered at the hands of an evil man who seeks more and more power.

The story flows so well and kept me engaged the entire time. I kept turning page after page to learn what was going to happen next. There are moments of where I am annoyed or disappointed with certain characters, but for me, it helps make them even more "real" or at least relatable as believable characters. I love the romance that the author throws into the story. You see it coming when you learn of Blue's stable-mate and how they came to be so close. It's heartbreaking but beautiful at the same time.

There is nothing that I don't like about this story. The author never becomes too focused on one particular part. The story flows well and keeps the reader engaged from beginning to end. I love the twists and surprises that the author throws into the story. It's a wonderful story to read.

I am rating this book 5 out of 5 stars. If you are a fantasy lover this is a book to pick up. If you love stories about unicorns then this is a book to grab. I'm sure that you will enjoy.
